REMOVABLE SANITARY COVER FOR FREEZER CANS.

Application filed December 2, 1925 Serial No. 72,825.

This invention relates to new and useful. improvements in removable sanitary covers for freezer cans now commonly placed in Ydisplay counters used in meat markets and other places where perishable articles are kept for sale.

It is now the usual practice to place a freezer can at each end of the display counter to keep the air which is in circulation at the proper temperature. The front of the can is usually exposed and presents an unsightly appearance and it is the purpose of my invention to overcome this objection by covering the front of the can and the ice contained therein with a suitable sanitary cover that will not interfere with the proper circulation' of the cooled air.

In the accompanying drawings, which are for illustrative purposes only and are therefore not drawn to scale:

kFigure l is an end view of the cover in position, showing the refrigerator in dotted lines.

Figure 2 is an enlarged detail front view of the removable cover.

Figure 3 is a back view of the coverk and Figure l is an edge view.

Referring to the drawings for a more particular description of my invention and in which drawings like parts are designated by like reference characters throughoutl the several views, A indicates the display counter, B the freezer cans placed in opposite ends of the counter and C the removable covers for the freezer cans.

The removable cover consists of a piece l of sheet iron or other suitable metal formed with a plurality of transverse openings 2 cor-.

which hooks over one edge of the freezer can and whereby the cover is held in removable position. The front of the cover is preferconnection with the drawings, it is thought that the construction, operationand advantages of my invention will be readily understood without requiring a more extended eX- planation.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure `by Letters Patent, is

l. A sanitary coverfor arefrigeration unitl having air circulating pipes passing therethrough consisting of a piece of sheet iron or other suitable metal formed with a plurality of transverse openingsV corresponding in size and number to the air pipes of the refrigeration unit and strips of wire mesh fastened to the back of the cover and covering said open-Y ings.
